Christmas morning is a magical time filled with excitement and the joy of gift-giving. However, when it comes to breakfast, the little ones are often more interested in unwrapping presents than sitting down for a meal. Enter the perfect solution: Crock Pot Monkey Bread With Biscuits. This recipe is a hassle-free and delicious treat that allows you to enjoy the festivities while still serving up a delightful breakfast.
Preparation Made Easy
On Christmas morning, the last thing you want is a complicated breakfast routine. With Crockpot Monkey Bread, preparation is a breeze. Start by combining half a cup of brown sugar, half a cup of sugar, and one tablespoon of cinnamon. Mix them up in a gallon bag for a mess-free experience.
Choose your favorite Southern-style biscuits (Pillsbury, Aldi, or Great Value), cut them into six pieces. Melt one stick of butter (half a cup) and dip each biscuit piece into the melted goodness. Toss them into the sugar mixture.
Using the gallon bag, shake it up, coating every inch of the biscuits in the irresistible cinnamon sugar mixture. The bag not only keeps things easy but also minimizes dish cleanup—perfect for a stress-free Christmas morning. While I prefer the bag method, a bowl is also an option to mix these with the sugar.
Setting the Stage in the Crock Pot
Grease your crockpot well with butter or cooking spray and pour the remaining melted butter into the bottom of the pot. Place each cinnamon-sugar-coated biscuit piece into the crockpot, ensuring full coverage of the bottom. The prep work takes only about 15 minutes, making it a convenient task to complete before the morning festivities begin.
Know your crockpot’s quirks and set it on low for 2 to 2.5 hours. While the magic happens inside the slow cooker, you can focus on opening presents and enjoying the special moments of Christmas morning. The result will be a mouthwatering Monkey Bread that’s soft, sweet, and ready to be devoured.
The Icing on the Christmas Treat
For the finishing touch, microwave your favorite frosting until it becomes liquidy. Whether it’s cream cheese or vanilla, drizzle the frosting over the Monkey Bread for an extra layer of sweetness. This simple yet decadent touch elevates your Christmas breakfast to a festive and indulgent treat.
This Christmas, delight your family with a stress-free and scrumptious breakfast using this Crockpot Monkey Bread With Biscuits recipe. By letting the slow cooker do the work, you can savor the joy of the season while still serving up a memorable and delicious meal. Enjoy the magic of Christmas morning with a side of warm, gooey, and utterly delightful Monkey Bread.
